That they got lucky that Stevenson fumbled. And of course, we got lucky that McPherson kicked all those field goals in last year's post-season.
Well to quote the great Roman philosopher Seneca- Luck is what happens when preparation meets opportunity
They were "lucky" because those players worked their a**es off in practice learning the playbook, learning their techniques, learning where to be at any given time. The coaches worked their a**es off teaching these players and putting together a game plan. And as usual, were flexible enough to make some killer adjustments at halftime.
Those turnovers weren't gifts from the opposing team. They were taken by a greedy and determined defense.
What a lucky post pally! LOL
I'll take good luck over shit luck any day. The rest of em are just jealous they ain't got no good luck..
